Castle Game: BAD END=DEAD END

[idolpro]

[Suddenly, you hear the wailing of a horn. Outside, tension is turning to panic. You can't see anything, but you can hear people gathering up their things, sobbing in fear or speaking in harsh whispers. A lone voice calls from the distance:

The enemy approaches!

Upon the map, an unfamiliar geography appears -- several small nations, clustered together. Outside of them, an endless sea of enemy forces, identified only by a symbol of a cracked skull. Each of the small nations is marked with a flag in one unit's colour, and a tiny model of a castle.

You are at war. How will you protect your people and yourself?

ROUND TWO

[idolpro]

[As everyone's decisions are made, the castle models on the map change. The current castle levels are:

LiliS - level 1
sensitIV - level 3
pep!pep! - level 0
Taisho Roman Revolution - level 2
BAD END=DEAD END - level 6
future is now - level 5
WILD CITY - level 8
☆ZRAEL - level 2
Heart Soldier Senshi - level 4
AlcheME! - level 3
avante en garde - level 2
BARiTONES - level 5

WILD CITY has mid-size castle with rough stone walls. Their courtyard is full of wooden buildings.

BAD END=DEAD END, future is now, Heart Soldier Senshi, & BARiTONES have small castles with wooden walls. Their courtyards are full of shacks.

LiliS, sensitIV, pep!pep!, Taisho Roman Revolution, ☆ZRAEL, AlcheME!, & avante en garde have tiny, crumbling wooden castles. Their courtyards have no walls, and consist only of tents.

Your castle is level 6. Outside, the citizens are terrified. They're very quiet, aside from the sobbing:

Surely, we're done for. Why does it have to end like this?!]

.....I know we should probably be stealing and improving ourselves, but I think we need to give to Lils. And pep, too.

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

...LiliS got hit.

pep!pep! fucking gave all theirs away.

Re: DISCUSSION

[motorcycle_noises]

....Let's give one to Lilis and one to Pep.

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

Yeah. I'm in.

Re: DISCUSSION

[criminaljustice]

[reeeefocusing on game]

Yeah, that seems about right.

... give to both?

Re: DISCUSSION

[motorcycle_noises]

I'm good with that plan.

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

Me, too.

Are we giving two and one, or gifting one and one and keeping one for us?

Re: DISCUSSION

[criminaljustice]

... I'd say give two to LiliS.

Re: DISCUSSION

[motorcycle_noises]

I agree.

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

...agree.

Re: DISCUSSION

[criminaljustice]

[... ooooor we find out that our scoring was Level 4 and not 6. H-HMMM...]

Re: DISCUSSION

[motorcycle_noises]

....Maybe only one each, then.

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

...one and one works fine, too.

Re: DISCUSSION

[criminaljustice]

Seems like a safer bet...

Re: DISCUSSION

[searingedgelord]

I'm fine with that.

Re: DISCUSSION

[neverbeentogeorgia]

Or someone thought they could spare one or two, thinking they'd get gifted shit.

We scored well--so we can expect people to think our bundles are expendable this round.

Re: DISCUSSION

[justfuckingtryit]

We can still spare a couple, at least.

DECISION

[idolpro]

[You have 3 bundles of materials with which to build up your castle. Your options are:

• Use your own materials, remaining neutral.


• Gift some your materials to another unit.


• Steal from another unit.

You may gift some or all of your materials, and may divide your gifts between more than one unit. You may steal from up to three units per round. You may not gift and steal in the same round. Any materials in your possession at the end of the round will be used to improve your castle's defense level.

The enemy will arrive after 2 rounds.]

Re: DECISION

[motorcycle_noises]

Give 1 to Lilis and 1 to pep!pep!
